I experienced a testicle torsion last year, and the doctor mentioned that it might lead to a decrease in my ability to reproduce. My spouse and I are really eager to have a child. I'm 31. What steps should I consider to improve our chances?

95 percent of men treated for testicular torsion within six hours of the onset of pain dont ultimately require testicle removal. However, an estimated 90 percent of men do require surgical removal of the testicle if treatment is delivered 48 hours or more after the pain starts.If testicles are removed chances are less..

I'm 22 and just realized I have this phimosis condition because I can't retract the foreskin on my penis, whether it's normal or erect. I thought it was normal until I read about it online and talked to some friends. I'm really scared of having surgery like circumcision. Can you explain what causes phimosis and what my options might be?

My penis curves downward quite a bit and while it doesn't hurt during sex, the angle makes things difficult. Is surgery a good option to fix this or are there risks I should know about?

I've been dealing with a UTI for the last ten days and have been taking medicines like Citralka syrup, Niftran, and Drotin M. However, my urine is still pale yellow, and my urinalysis showed 10-15 pus cells, with the culture coming back negative. How much longer will it take until I'm feeling better? I'm really getting tired of this.
